TNA's Bound for Glory main event in jeopardy

Kevin Nash was rushed to the hospital about two hours ago in Orlando. We don't have any details other than he was feeling bad after the fan fest and called 911. At this point it is not clear what the problem is but the feeling at the moment is that it is likely he won't be able to appear for tomorrow's show.
At this point the company is working on a subtitute main event plan. The plan at this point is still not finalized both for Jeff Jarrett's new opponent or what to do with the match.
Ahh Yes. The old Starrcade trick....

Just a quick update on this.

Unless Kevin Nash's condition worsens today, he is expected to work the PPV tonight. We'll keep you posted.
Wel this is good news. Although Jarrett/Nash won't be spectacular it has had a lot of build up on iMPACT! and TNA will look quite unprofessional if the match doesn't come off properly. Granted things go wrong but still if the match can go ahead then it's best that it does.
If Nash can't physically make it then a good substitute to me would be bringing in Raven to have him get his rematch against Jarrett. TNA could write it off as Raven losing his temper when coming across Nash backstage and taking him out of action or somthing like that then Raven get's Nashes shot.
I hope Nash is ok although i'm not much of a fan of the guy you hate to see anyone having troubles especially when if can be fatal like his chest pains.

Another update to this has just been announced from TNAwrestling.com
KEVIN NASH UPDATE, MORE REGARDING TONIGHT'S "BOUND FOR GLORY"
Update: On Sunday, TNA management learned that Kevin Nash will not be medically cleared to compete tonight in the main event of "Bound For Glory" for the NWA World Heavyweight Title. TNA management official Terry Taylor spent the night with Nash at the hospital, who also had his family in attendance. Nash was admitted to an Orlando hospital on Saturday afternoon after dialing 911 from his hotel room shortly before the fanfest.
TNA management along with Championship Committee member Larry Zbyszko have ensured TNAwrestling.com that the NWA World Heavyweight Title will indeed be defended tonight at "Bound For Glory". We hope to have an update on the condition of Kevin Nash as soon as possible.
Well thats a real kick in the bollocks isn't it. This is a shame for TNA as, as i said in my earlier post this really doesn't make them come across as a top notch promotion that there trying to be seen as. I mean when was the last time WWE had to change their Main Event the night of the P.P.V i mean granted it wasn't their faults or anyones fault for that matter but still if people new Nash was is such a bad condition then why book his as your head guy. Well i only hope this doesn't hurt TNA and they can find a good enough replacement to fill up the Main Event......*cough*RAVEN*cough*

Don’t blow Raven/Jarrett on tonight’s PPV. If anything, Save it till next month.

Wow! What the hell can TNA possibly do? They are in a real tight situation and the only logical guy to put in their IMO would be if they could pull Scott Hall out from somebodies ass. Why? Well it makes sense. Kevin Nash is hospitalised and his best friend Scott Hall steps in to take his place and take down Jarrett. Acutally that kind of sucks but Im with Gary on the not using Jarrett/Raven till next month.

I would want to save Jarrett/Raven till next month under normal circumstances but considering the P.P.V starts in less then an hour and Raven is the only logical choice i don't see what else TNA can do. Unless they have some favors to call in then yeah i see it as Raven vs. Jarrett for tonights Main Event.
Edit: This just came in as i was posting. Credit TNAWrestlingNews.com
The likely opponents for Jeff Jarrett are Rhino and Raven. Raven is less likely as he's not booked to wrestle on the show.
Tito Ortiz will still be the special referee of the main event.
Well there you go the scales are tipped in favor of Rhino. This makes sense considering him and Jarrett had the history from last months P.P.V and considering it was partly on fault of Jarrett for Rhino losing against Raven last month. Rhino/Jarrett should actually be a semi decent match. Unfortunatley i think the quality of Monsters Ball 2 will drop because of this but still Abyss, Sabu and Hardy should be able to put on a good match regardless.
